【導語】這是一篇新聞報道。根據(jù)發(fā)表在2023年7月5日《神經病學》在線期刊上的一項研究，可知好好

照顧你的牙齒可能與更好的大腦健康有關。

28.細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段"Ourstudyfoundthatgum（牙齦）diseaseandtoothlosswerelinkedtobrain

shrinkage（萎縮）inthehippocampus,whichplaysaroleinmemoryandAlzheimer'sdisease（我們的研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，牙

齦疾病和牙齒脫落與海馬體的大腦萎縮有關，海馬體在記憶和阿爾茨海默病中起著重要作用）”可知，

Yamaguchi的研究主要是關于牙齒健康與大腦之間的聯(lián)系，故選D。

29.推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段"Thestudyinvolved172peoplewithoutmemoryproblems.Theiraverageagewas67.

每個參與者的牙齒數(shù)量進行了統(tǒng)計，并檢查了牙齦疾病的數(shù)量。）”可知，研究人員通過對比數(shù)據(jù)的方式開展

研究，故選A。

30.細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段"Theseresultshighlighttheimportanceofpreservingthehealthoftheteethandnot

justmaintainingtheteeth（這些結果強調了保持牙齒健康的重要性，而不僅僅是維護牙齒）”可知，研究結果表

明保持牙齒健康非常重要，故選B。

項研究的局限性在于它是在日本的一個地區(qū)進行的，因此結果可能不適用于其他地區(qū)。）''可知，Yamaguchi
